It's my birthday today!

(Why would this guy mention his birthday in a MGSV thread?)

Huh.

Here's my thoughts 1/3 through:

I think this may be the best single player game I've ever played, gameplay wise that is. Maybe I'll get burnt or later but 18 missions down and 60 side ops done plus a handful of replays for S ranks, I love it. Can't wait to unlock the rest of the equipment. Side ops are fantastic if you treat them like a giant sandbox to experiment in, which has always been my favorite part of this series...apart from the story.

Yeah, the story is weak and in sure it'll be disappointing, but god damn is this game incredibly fun to play.

I think the key for me is play for stealth but didn't be afraid to get your hands dirty.

Mission 13 and 18 are my favorites so far. Fucking awesome stuff.

mission 18

Running out into the night with the kids in tow was magical.

non exist any villain. I mean he showed up in like 3 cutscenes, never really did anything, and had the lamest death ever.

Story wise, is act 2 better?

No it's far worse, however there are some cool moments that are worth seeing.

Gameplay wise it is a massive drop-off, for reasons that will become quickly apparent.

 

[brinstar]

hahaha holy shit, I was crawling through the jungle and an enemy soldier D-Dog somehow didn't mark is standing in my way. I'm sitting there wondering how this could be possible and how to proceed and I decide "fuck it" and send the dog in to grab him. D-Dog takes a bite and the soldier's a

[Solobbos]

Thanks for the spoil, mate!

 

[SeanR1221]

Post from the last thread. Didn't realize we had a new one.

First thing I don't like about this game.

It SUCKS in remote play.

To interrogate someone you need to use like a million different fingers at once.

 

[sora87]

People are seriously confusing this thread for the spoiler thread at this point. Pft.

Mission 10. Prisoner in the mansion at the start of the mission. You have to be quick or the guards will execute him.

People are disappointed with the story and think that provides a good excuse to spoil revelations for others.

It sucks.

 

[TheAquaticApe]

Alright. Mission 46 done. Is their anything after this? Any other big cutscenes?

Spoiler

anything with Eli and the Metal Gear he stole?

Thanks for the spoilers, buddy! Gamers really are wankers.

Stupid question but how do I make FOBs?

 

[cackhyena]

With how often I'm in this thread, I don't know how I've managed to avoid the spoilers people randomly throw out.

 

[xxracerxx]

You have to progress in the story...I think past Mission 22 or near there.

I don't know who thought it was a good idea to make chapter 2 be all old missions but with insane handicaps.

I can sell precious metals without them needed for construction yes? Sitting on 3k of them atm.

 

[Uff duh]

So how do you know how to

quarantine the infected at mother base when the infection is spreading?

Late 20's mission spoilers.

All those comments about chapter 2 make me really sad, the trailer after chapter 1 looked so promising.

Oh wow...that's a shame. Thanks for the info! I would love to know what happened in the development of this game!

Ahh thanks! Barely on mission 12 and I'm already 40 hours in just doing side ops, checking out mother base, tapes and fooling around. So far my GOTY til Fallout 4.

 

[Strangelove77]

It must suck to not be an MGS fan right now. Half of the first page seems to be all about MGS.


Any who, mission 40 is totally worth doing.

There are certain bionic arm upgrades you get later on that require precious metals to equip and to research

it's the zone of the enders arm, the one that gives you the wisp ability from zoe 2

Do diamonds on Motherbase come back after time? I love interrogating my troops and getting the location for them.

I also really love the guy who tells me "Harder...Boss"

 

[sikkinixx]

Anyone know,

Spoiler

What do I need to do other than have 100 Bond with Quiet to get the Rain Scene?

I'd like to know as well.

Why does Print screen crash this game?

Spoiler

It's clear that they ran out of time or money. It wasn't some sort of artistic/design decision.

 

[LurkerPrime]

I hope it's ten minutes of quiet. Would be so fitting.

 

[Reebot]

This game's story is an unmitigated disaster. I'm in awe that Kojima managed to fuck it up this hard.

 

[Deadstar]

So can buddies die permanently? Is there any way to protect against this? I'm so paranoid when D-Dog is running around and gets shot.

 

[LeonSPBR]

It's clear that they ran out of time or money. It wasn't some sort of artistic/design decision.

Probably Konami wouldn't fund MGSV anymore. I mean Kojima had to launch Ground Zeroes just so they can have money already for MGSV, so it's probably Konami decided that MGSV won't get any fund after the 70$ million they already spent.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

Why does everything need so much fuel to create on Mother Base?

 

[Soulflarz]

Finally better than all of you.

Foxhound worthy.

 

[LeonSPBR]

So can buddies die permanently? Is there any way to protect against this? I'm so paranoid when D-Dog is running around and gets shot.

No they don't die. Once they get enough damage, they are fultoned out of the battlefield. Although D-Horse can get shot by a tank and still be fine, so they can take some punishment.

Whatever the reasoning, it's really a shame on both sides. Kojima's fault for not utilizing the development time more effectively and not being more efficient on the production side, and Konami for quickly pulling the plug and not allowing a delay for the last bit of content to be finished.
